Look, I enjoyed the Fugitive, but the whole “Hollywood doesn’t make em like they used to” bullshit is overplayed. There are many recent films of varying quality that could be described as action thrillers for an adult audience. And if anyone made a film to much like The Fugitive, it would be unfavorably compared to the original.
This author is using nostalgia to boil up some discontent in order to drive engagement, including my own little rant about how stupidly wrong it is. Better to ignore it as insipid tripe than to argue the points.
I read an article about how the Atlantic, owned by Steve Jobs widow, employs a leader who is ex-israeli military and that their coverage of the conflict in the last year has been one-sided and horrific. It was damning.
“The reason it’s called the Atlantic is that it belongs at the bottom of the ocean” was the title. I was convinced and disappointed, I remember them having interesting articles back in the day but am done reading them.

They sure don’t do journalism like they used to.
Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be.
